About DigiAlly

DigiAlly is a financial intelligence and credit risk firm. We produce institutional-grade company analysis, credit assessments, peer benchmarking and investment research on Indian companies, listed and unlisted, and we advise banks, financial institutions and enterprises on AI adoption, digital strategy and transformation, digital bank launches and technology procurement. We also run board and CXO training programmes on AI and digital transformation. Our clients include banks, private equity investors, development finance institutions and enterprises in India, Southeast Asia and other international markets, and they rely on this work to make lending, investment and partnership decisions.

We hold our work to one standard: every figure traces to a primary source or a named database, and gaps are disclosed rather than estimated. The same discipline applies to the CEO's Office: nothing is assumed, nothing is lost and nothing goes out without review.

The role

The founder's week runs across research deliverables awaiting review, advisory and training engagements in progress, proposals and tenders with fixed deadlines, partnership conversations, hiring and the consultant bench. The Executive, CEO's Office sits at the centre of all of it: preparing the founder for each meeting, turning conversations into briefs, proposals and presentations, and following up with clients, partners, consultants and the internal team so that every commitment is tracked to closure. The role sees the full breadth of the business and is expected to bring order and pace to it.

Success in the role rests on five attributes:

• Follow-through - Open actions are owned, chased and closed without reminders; the founder never has to ask twice.
• Writing - Briefs, proposal sections and emails that are clear, concise and ready to send, with specifics in place of adjectives.
• Judgement and discretion - Knowing what needs the founder's attention today and what can wait, and handling confidential client, candidate and commercial matters with complete discretion.
• Organisation - Several proposals, engagements and hiring threads moving at once, each with its own deadline, version and owner.
• Independence - Working remotely from short briefs with rapid iteration, and raising a question only after having checked what is already on file.

Key responsibilities

• CEO's agenda - Maintain the running list of priorities, decisions and open actions across all engagements. Prepare the founder for client and partner meetings and external engagements with a one-page brief, capture outcomes and chase actions to closure. Produce a weekly status summary.
• Proposals and tenders - Own proposal production end to end for multilateral, government and private-sector clients: read the terms of reference or request for proposal, build the compliance matrix and submission checklist, draft sections, assemble team CVs in DigiAlly format, coordinate pricing inputs and submit on time through the client's portal or email.
• Consultant bench and staffing - Maintain consultant profiles in the standard DigiAlly template, match bench consultants (database, cyber-security and infrastructure specialists) to tender and engagement requirements, confirm availability and keep the pipeline current.
• Engagement coordination - Track scope, milestones, deliverable versions and client review dates across live engagements, from research reports and credit assessments to advisory programmes and training workshops. Schedule the founder's review of each deliverable before client release and keep engagement status current.
• Client and partner follow-up - Manage correspondence with clients, partners and prospective partners, prepare follow-up notes after each conversation and keep relationship records up to date.
• Research and briefing notes - Research companies, markets and prospective clients and partners for meetings and proposals. Prepare first drafts of presentations, concept notes and reports for the founder's review, in Word and PowerPoint to the house style.
• Training and events - Prepare and format materials for board and CXO training programmes and speaking engagements, coordinate logistics with client teams and manage pre- and post-session follow-up.
• Hiring - Coordinate screening calls, take-home cases and founder interviews for analyst, sales and consultant hiring, keep hiring trackers current and carry each process through to offer for the founder's approval.
• Records and version control - File every proposal, deliverable and template with disciplined version control so that the latest version is always the one in use.
